Thomas C McCallum The Future for Strangetouch

The future for strangetouch is taking a step back in time, we started life off as an acoustic duo and now we are going back to being an acoustic trio

We are making plans to record some new tracks as well as re recording some older tracks after much soul searching we have put far too much into this project to just throw in the towel, we have over 15 demos that can be working songs and we are putting our money where our mouth is by hiring the services of producer Andy Haldane to work on…

Alcuin Edwards Arrgh - Banjo player, fiddler and accordionist wanted!

I think Vaccination may have imploded.

 

We were due to play at the Water Rats again but after a furious exchange of emails in the morning which began with a simple request for a set list and ended with the bass player insisting on playing minimalist improvisational rock and/or roll while the other singer wanted to play songs we knew which would stop the audience getting bored... then the main guitarist (and the bloke who does the beats) chimed in with, "well I'm not playing…

Even before getting within 4 yrds of it I could see it was a wrong'un but I asked for it off the wall for a quick look.

 

Hmm....   Let us start with the obvious things I noted.  

 

1. No serial on the headstock - I think it highly…

Toby Burton Children of The Damned - A review of The Damned's 35th Anniversary Gig at The Roundhouse, London



I’m at the Roundhouse in Chalk Farm for the second time in a month – I was here to see the Horrors in October. I have been gradually drawn to the Roundhouse over the years – ever since I watched ‘The Doors Are Open’, which features footage of one of the two gigs the Doors played here in 1968. I now live a three minute walk away.

I am with two musician friends that I have met in…

If Ellery Roberts thumps his chest, heart-side and rapper-style, to pre-empt another lyric, my wife is going to slap him.

To do so though, she will have to swim the raging sea of…

There hasn't been a fresh 'the 4th suit' blog on this site for ages!!!

What have been doing or not doing!!!!

We have new songs written, but not recorded, we really need to get some studio time and start up loading studio quality tracks, not to dis our demos as the…

Christopher Stewart On Individualistic Spirituality

In my opinion, on some social networks there appears to be a tendency to avoid challenges altogether in order to protect beliefs.



The rationale seems to be that the intent of the challengers is merely to « make wrong, » and that those who challenge are just not « confident in their own beliefs. »



But what then if the intent is not to « make wrong » ? What if the intent is to shed a different light ? What if the prompting comes from the heart and not the ego ? What if the… Continue
